ROBERTO MORETTI AND LUCIA MORI

PODERE CASACCIA

​

Podere Casaccia is a biodynamic heaven in Scandicci, just a few km from Florence, comprised of a total of 12 hectares of woods, olive groves and vineyard. Roberto Moretti, later joined in the endeavor by his wife Lucia Mori, purchased the farm in 1999 and, inspired by their deep love for their land and natural wine, began recuperating old vines, some over 60 years old, and almost forgotten Tuscan varieties. From these revered ancient vineyards they used old clones of Malvasia Bianca, Pugnitello and Fogliatonda among others to plant new vines. They follow personally every step of the painstaking work in the vineyard, where a verdant biodiversity reigns supreme, and the natural vinification. The depth of emotional breadth and sense of terroir of these delightful wines is difficult to put into words. All wines see no addition of SO2.
